Re: x5250-0.5.2-pre4 released

[Scott Klement <tn5250@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

This has the same problem as the last one:

checking for tn5250_terminal_init in -l5250... no
configure: error: ** Unable to find 5250 libraries!

To fix it, I have to run the following command:

$ setenv LDFLAGS -L/usr/local/lib

Now ./configure will run successfully, but make will fail with the 
following errors:

$ make
Making all in src
if gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I.. -DSYSCONFDIR=\"/usr/local/etc\" 
-I../bitmaps
    -I/usr/X11R6/include -DDATADIR=\"/usr/local/share\" -g -O2 -MT 
alloccolors.o
 -MD -MP -MF ".deps/alloccolors.Tpo" -c -o alloccolors.o alloccolors.c; 
then mv
 -f ".deps/alloccolors.Tpo" ".deps/alloccolors.Po"; else rm -f 
".deps/alloccolor
s.Tpo"; exit 1; fi

I can fix this problem by typing:

setenv CFLAGS -I/usr/local/include

Then I can re-run ./configure and make and it'll build.

You might find the following interesting:

    $ pkg-config --libs tn5250
    -L/usr/local/lib -l5250 -lssl -lcrypto -lncurses

    $ pkg-config --cflags tn5250
    -I/usr/local/include

It's almost like there should be a link between ./configure and 
pkg-config...
